Liberal Democrat environment spokeswoman Wera Hobhouse does comment within that piece, she may be contactable for more ideas.
Makes just daft comment as far as I can see. Wants to change the network and encourage more risk taking on unprotected cycles that are difficult to spot and do can only be being used by those with a death wish, who hope to hold up regular traffic trying to use the roads they paid for. Best not to give such dangerous viewpoints the air of publicity.

If one wants fewer cars then town & country planning needs to improve so folk have no incentive to work miles from home. Or better still, discourage large families and stop net immigration.
They have a load off the road, people working from home dont commute.

But then we get all the bleating about that crashing businesses.

What the Lib Dems, and other politicians for any change, need to understand is that change always has consequences, often unforeseen, unpredictable and not always pleasant.

Easy to spout from the sidelines though isnt it.
This question asked by someone who complained about Peter Pedant not posting in English!
That is BHG, you just came on here to attack the poster?
Question Author
any input BHG or are you just trolling?
I came on here expecting questions to be written in English, not Gobbledegook. As a non-Gobbledegook speaker I am unable to understand the question so unable to answer it.
OK, I can get Jam jars = Cars
Kermits? I assume that means roads, but Kermit is a frog not a toad. When the question is gibberish, what hope of the answers?

Not sure why you are attacking the Lib Dems, it is the Conservative Government’s aim to increase cycle use. Hat deters cycling is that the roads are not safe. They became safer during lockdown because there was less traffic and cycling increased massively.
Proper money (not piddling pin money) needs to be invested in infrastructure to physically separate cars and bikes. Petrol and diesel cars should be taxed out of existence before 2035.

kermit - kermit the frog - frog and toad - road. simples!
-- answer removed --
Wouldn’t Mister Toad = Road been less daft?
practically every new estate built recently or currently being built requires residents to own a car, as they have no in-built facilities. most out of town retail parks are miles away from the nearest transport hubs and likewise need a car.

working from home will put some of that right but not all of it. until planners exercise some joined up thinking, nothing (and QED car usage) will ever change. in a lot of cases developers are supposed to make green concessions but they rarely do, and councils don't chase them.
He is a bit of a struggle...

gromit: "Wouldn’t Mister Toad = Road been less daft? " - usable but Frog - Frog and toad is the traditional term, Kermit was added later. https://www.cockneyrhymingslang.co.uk/slang/select.aspx?order=english-slang&page=1&mode=letter&letter=R&;EnglishSlangRepeater=2_20
TTT

What is the CRS for ‘tedious’ ?
As TTT points out Frog & Toad is accepted as the original with Kermit being more of a modern adaptation. Cockney, as any other languages, does develop. I just checked, if you Google is then its there.

Of Course clicking the link rather gives it away.

//YMB seems to understand him , perhaps they went to the same School of " Gobbledygook "//

It's not "Gobbledygook", Cockney came about by people in the East End, and later other parts of London using language that made it difficult for the Peelers to get.

And no I am pretty sure I didnt go to the same school as TTT. However my wife is from London and uses many terms regularly. She was teaching our Grandson "Aples and Pears" only this weekend adn I can count on one hand the number of times she has used the word "hair". Its always "I'm doin' me Barnet".
is this thread about Lib-Dem attitudes to car use, or cockney rhyming slang?
There you are then - a language developed specially so that non-cockneys couldn't understand it. I'm proud to say I'm not a cockney, so will continue to ignore all posts written in that language.
The Lib Dems and car use. As the OP title and link say.

It has been hijacked by the usual.

"What is the CRS for ‘tedious’ ? " - easy, "Gromit"!
